The issue with logging in with email addresses has been resolved.
Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.
Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.

What type of Wizard's Tower will you construct?
(No, constructing the Tower is not negotiable, though all details of its construction are.)
Can, not does.
I'd love that kind of disease resistance.
Wouldn't love putting it to the test, but would love the superpower.
Kinda like "regeneration from single drop of blood". It's great to have, but if you end up using it you should re-examine your life choices XD
Doesn't matter.
One major part of being a Gym Leader/Ace Trainer/Ranger/Elite Four/Champion is responding to various levels of emergency.
Secretary was approached by a high-badge* trainer about an emergency relating to hurt Pokemon of her employer's Type.

I've never used email alerts, so I can't comment on that, but I've noticed a rather large increase in "spam" alerts, that is when a random user comments in a thread I'm following.
Previously, I'd reliably get OP alerts and occasional thread reply alert, especially when thread was woken up after...
Never.
If this one irritates you, then you probably shouldn't read cliff's previous work, Unconquerable? something like that, in Shadowrun or any of Cherico's works.
That protag had much less reason to be cooperative.
This one? It's entirely in-character for ms. Nowak to work with the system...
